However, since he was already here, he might as well give it a try.
Old Ancestor Green Hat looked around warily and said, "Hehe, as a fellow Great Sage of Cangtian Mountain, can't I pay a visit to the Puppet Ancestor?"
"I'm not free!" The Puppet Patriarch bluntly refused, not giving any face to the Green Hat Patriarch.
Old Ancestor Green Hat lost all his face, but he wasn't angry. The Puppet Patriarch had always been this kind of person, and he wouldn't get angry.
The Patriarch of the Netherworld said sinisterly, "To be honest, someone from the Super Sacred Clan, the Heaven Covering Clan, came here just now. Aren't you worried, Patriarch of the Puppet Tribe?"
The Sacred Puppet Clan fell silent for a moment, and then the huge puppet's mouth slowly opened, and a cold voice came from within, "Don't touch or look around after you come in, or I'll expel you immediately!"
The two Patriarchs looked at each other and smiled bitterly. After all, the two of them had been defeated by the Puppet Patriarch in the past, so they did not receive any respect from him.
With their cultivation and realm, did they really need someone to remind them not to touch it?
Su Yu fell into deep thought. Could there be some unspeakable secret within the Puppet Saint Clan? Why did they warn him so deliberately?
Hiding this doubt in his heart, he followed the two ancestors into the Sacred Puppet Tribe.
What entered his sight was an enormous pitch-black space.
This was the interior of the giant puppet. Although the interior was huge, it was filled with intricate components.
There were more than a hundred million of them.
So many parts were operating, maintaining the giant puppet.
This was when the giant puppet was in a stationary state. If it started fighting, more parts would be activated.
Old Ancestor Green Hat sighed in amazement. "This puppet is tens of thousands of times more complex than a living being's body. It's not an injustice that we were defeated by this puppet."
Old Ancestor Netherworld deeply agreed. Every single part of the puppet was perfect and flawless. Only in this way could a super strong Great Saint puppet be constructed.
Su Yu was also very surprised.
Compared to the exquisite puppet before him, the black ape puppet he'd obtained in the past seemed to be extremely crude.
"Look at that gear. If I'm not mistaken, it should be made from the Blueheart Iron, which is extinct in the last era," Ancestor Green Hat suddenly said as he pointed at the nearest component.
Su Yu had heard of the Blue Heart Iron before. It was a type of ore that could self-repair and grow.
The parts that were lost would be restored in a short period of time.
This item was not sold by the catty, nor by the tael, but by the grain.
In the previous era, a single grain of Blue Heart Iron was worth 10 billion Soul Stones.
In the current era, one wouldn't even see 50 billion Soul Stones being sold.
Because there was no such thing on the market.
But the puppet in front of him actually had a key component that was forged from Blue Heart Iron. This gear contained over a thousand pieces of Blue Heart Iron.
It was easy to imagine how valuable it was.
"What are you all standing there for?" A dissatisfied voice resounded from within the puppet.
The Golem Patriarch was urging them to hurry up.
Old Ancestor You Ming and the others had no choice but to move forward until they reached the neck of the puppet.
A large hall floated in mid-air. Inside, there was a short but extremely muscular dwarf dressed in a black robe. He was holding a hammer and hammering a puppet.
He was the ancestor of the Puppet Saint Tribe.
Old Ancestor Green Hat and Old Ancestor You Ming were much more vigilant. They brought Su Yu into the hall and bowed to the Golem Patriarch with cupped fists. "The Golem Patriarch is still the same as always."
The Golem Patriarch didn't even look at them. He raised his hammer and hammered the puppet. Without turning his head, he said, "What's the matter? Say it and leave immediately!"
Such impoliteness really caused the two old ancestors to be angry but have nowhere to vent.
This punching shorty still had a bad temper!
Old Ancestor Green Hat looked at Su Yu and let him speak.
Su Yu glanced at the puppet and said, "I am the leader of the cauldron. I have two matters to discuss with you. First, I want to invite you to join the Hidden Sky Mountain Alliance. At present, the two Ancestors have already joined …"
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by the Golem Patriarch. "I'm not interested. Tell me the second matter."
Old Ancestor Green Hat and Old Ancestor You Ming looked helpless. Before they came, they had a hunch that with the bad temper of the Golem Patriarch, he would most likely not agree to join any alliance.
He only wanted to focus on making puppets. He had never been interested in the conflicts of the outside world.
Su Yu wasn't annoyed. He continued, "The second matter, I want to borrow your clan's fire pool to make something."
Crack!
All of a sudden, a long crack appeared on the chest of the puppet that was being hammered, revealing a large number of sophisticated parts inside.
The puppet, which had taken so much effort to make, had been declared a failure.
The Golem Patriarch was furious, and he vented his anger on Su Yu and the others. "Get lost! It's all your fault for interfering with my crafting! "
No matter how patient Old Ancestor Green Hat and Old Ancestor You Ming were, they couldn't stand it anymore. "Golem Patriarch, watch your words! It's obviously your crafting method that has a problem. What does it have to do with us? "
The crack on the puppet was obviously not there after they came. It was flawed in the first place.
Otherwise, how could there be a crack when he hammered it a few times normally?
The Golem Patriarch was rude and unreasonable. He raised his hammer and said fiercely, "I told you to get lost, so get lost! Otherwise, don't even think about leaving! "
The two Ancestors were furious. What the hell was this?
They winked at Su Yu. Judging from today's situation, there was no way they could talk. It was better to leave as soon as possible.
However, Su Yu put his hands behind his back and didn't leave. Instead, he said calmly, "How dare you call yourself the Golem Patriarch with such skills?"
The two Ancestors' faces changed when they heard that, and they winked at Su Yu immediately.
The Golem Patriarch was a hot-tempered person, and he hated it when people spoke ill of him, especially when it came to crafting puppets.
"Boy, do you really think I dare not do anything to you?" The Golem Patriarch's eyes were burning with anger.
Su Yu said expressionlessly, "I'm just telling the truth!"
Just as the Golem Patriarch was filled with murderous intent, Su Yu said again, "You don't even know one of the 18 Puppet Techniques. How dare you call yourself the Golem Patriarch!"
The Golem Patriarch, who was full of murderous intent, changed his face when he heard that. He looked at Su Yu in surprise. "What 18 Puppet Techniques are you talking about?"
Su Yu said calmly, "Of course it's the 18 ancestral techniques of the Puppet Saint Clan. It seems that you aren't even proficient in the Abyss Puppet Technique, let alone the others."
The Puppet Saint Clan was different from other clans. They used to be divided into 18 clans, and all of them made puppets their ancestral profession.
Each clan had its own ancestral technique, and there were 18 of them in total.
As early as a month ago, Su Yu had expected this situation, so he learned the ancestral techniques of the three great Saint Clans.
He recognized the Golem Patriarch's hammering technique at a glance. It was the Abyss Puppet Technique, which was the most profound of the 18 great puppet techniques.
However, many of the techniques of the Golem Patriarch were not exquisite.
"Although I don't know where you heard it from, it's ridiculous to question my crafting technique based on this, unless you can prove it to me!" The Golem Patriarch squinted at Su Yu.
Su Yu turned around slowly and walked out. He said, "Then I'll take it as a joke. Goodbye, I won't disturb your crafting of the puppets!"
The Golem Patriarch was obviously trying to provoke Su Yu into displaying the related ancestral technique.
However, he was not willing to be honest.
"Wait!" The Golem Patriarch said coyly, "If you can prove that my technique is not good enough, I'll forgive your recklessness and ignorance!"
What a tsundere little old man!
He was obviously eager for Su Yu to show him the ancestral technique he wanted to see, but he refused to say it!
Su Yu shook his head. "As you said, I'm just a joke, and I don't deserve to speak in the Puppet Saint Clan. Goodbye!"
He took a step forward and left with the two Ancestors.
"You … stop right there!" The Golem Patriarch pestered Su Yu and said hesitantly, "If you can show me something, I'll let you use the fire pool."
After saying that, he added fiercely, "But let's make this clear. If you're just talking nonsense, don't blame me for driving you away!"
His heart was full of desire.
Of the 18 clans of puppets, the other 17 clans had long disappeared countless eras ago. Even now, his people did not know that the other 17 clans had once existed in the world.
However, the person in front of him had mentioned the 18 Puppet Techniques and accurately said that they belonged to the Abyss Puppet Clan!
This really shocked the Golem Patriarch from the bottom of his heart.
Except for him and a few Ancient Saints, no one in the clan knew that they were only from the Abyss Puppet Clan, and they all called themselves the Puppet Saint Clan.
This person definitely knew something.
Su Yu smiled softly when he heard that. The Netherworld Patriarch and the Green Hat Patriarch were even more shocked.
They had dealt with the Golem Patriarch many times, but this was the first time they saw him give in to someone.
This hot-tempered old thing had always started a fight at the slightest disagreement. How could he be as good-tempered as he was today?
"You want to lend me the fire pool?" Su Yu smiled softly and turned to the cracked puppet. He stretched out his palm and said, "Give me the hammer."
The Golem Patriarch immediately handed the puppet to Su Yu and said, "What do you want to do?"
Su Yu looked at the crack and said, "I want to fuse the crack, of course."
"Fuse?" The Golem Patriarch's pupils shrank. Among the Eighteen Puppet Clans, one of them cultivated the extremely rare Puppet Restoration Technique.
That kind of ancestral technique had long disappeared dozens of eras ago. He had only seen some records in ancient books that only the Clan Master could read.
Legend had it that with that kind of ancestral technique, any damaged puppet could be perfectly repaired.
Even if the body was broken, there would be no problem. It was a miracle.
Unfortunately, that kind of ancestral technique had long been lost.
Could the fusion that Su Yu mentioned be that kind of ancestral technique?
It shouldn't be possible.
Su Yu floated the hammer in front of his chest, and then he kept performing hand signs. An incomparably obscure remnant mark was inserted into the hammer.
Then, he grabbed the hammer and gently tapped on the crack.
A shocking scene appeared. With the tap, the trace on the hammer slowly merged into the crack. Then, the crack slowly fused …
With just a simple tap, the crack, which was as wide as a finger, was reduced to the size of a hair.
If the fusion continued, it would be completely repaired!
"The Puppet Restoration Technique!" The Puppet Grandmaster gasped and looked at Su Yu in shock. He asked, "Who are you?"
